Raspberry & Orange Marinated Chicken

I know. This recipe may seem odd to some of you as I use two types of alcohol as a base for this recipe. But there was a method to my madness I assure you! You see, while packing up some my kitchen this past weekend, I came across small amounts of Cointreau and Chambord and didn't want to pack them away, nor did I want to throw something out that I know I can use to make something with. The funniest thing is I'm not even sure why I have them because I don't drink either, but must have needed them along the way for a recipe or received them as a gift. In any event, this chicken was very moist and had just enough raspberry and orange flavor so that you can tell it's in there, but it wasn't overpowering or too sweet. I probably would have preferred this recipe using boneless chicken breasts then grill them, but I'm trying to run out what food I have left in my house so bone-in chicken breasts it was.
